10 Best Holiday Party Venues in Brooklyn, NY
Brooklyn has holiday party options in nearly every neighborhood. You'll find Williamsburg rooftops with Manhattan views, Gowanus lofts and Greenpoint dining rooms that can take a crowd. These 10 holiday party venues in Brooklyn are all on RestauRent, and they cover company parties, team dinners and nights out with friends.
Tips for Booking a Brooklyn Holiday Party
Book early. Friday and Saturday nights in December are the first dates to go.
Check both capacities. A seated dinner and a standing reception can differ by dozens of guests in the same room.
Plan for the trip home. In December, an easy ride back matters as much as the view.
Ask about vendors. Some venues handle everything in-house. Others let you bring your own caterer, DJ or bar.
